Recently? Are those faulty Seagate drives still being sold in 2017?
EDIT: Ah, I see that you meant you're turned off by 3tb Seagates in general. You could just look at the model number.

Got a decent deal on an HGST a few weeks later,
Home users should just backup their important stuff and buy whatever they want. A super reliable drive won't save them from an accidental drop, a fire or theft.
I imagine most of their drives don't even see much traffic if they're used for backups. Write once, read rarely. I wonder how B2 changes that equation.
